4 (Adv*rU semen t.) WHAT MAYOR COWER SMS About Atlanta’s Experience With Prohibition and , High License. WORKED AN INJURY To that City, and Even the Prohibi tionists Prefer the Present System. In view of the fact that a great deal ba« recently been said m to the effect of prohibition in Atlanta during the period it maintained, Mayor S. B. Price ad <lr.«»<d the following letter of inquiry to Mayor Cbarlea A. Collier, of that city: "Macon. Ga.. October 22, 1898—Hon. Char lea A. Collier, Mayor of Atlanta - Dear Sir: The city of Macon la now on the eve of a prohibition campaign, and as I have the interests of Ma'on close at heart, and desiring to know something of the ef fects of such a campaign, as well as the r< ult, should that result be prohibition, and as Atlanta passed through such an ordeal and that you. being an observing man with every facility and opportunity for knowing what It does or might do for a city aspiring to be live and progressive, I write to ask you to give me the result of your observations of Atlanta before, during and after such a campaign. Furth ermore, 1 would be glad if you would give me, as one who has had opportunities of travel and observation, your opinion as to what effect prohibition would have on a city of Macon's ambitions. .Very truly yours, * S. B. Price, Mayor.” The the foregoing Mayor Collier has sent the following reply: "Atlanta, Ga., October 29, 1898.—Hon. 8. B Price, Mayor. Macon, Ga. —My Dear Sir: Replying to your communication of recent date requesting my opinion as to the effect of a prohibition campaign, and the result of such campaign should that result be prohibition: In view of the ex perience of Atlanta along this line, I beg to say that, in a city such as Macon or Atlanta there can be but one result, and that would be disastrous to the best in terests of the city, not only from a busi ness standpoint*, but. in my opinion, from a moral standpoint as well. "I was a member of the city govern ment of Atlanta during the time prohibi tion was in effect here. I took at that time an active interest in public affairs, and believe I am in a position to judge fairly and Impartially of the effect of such h campaign as well as the effect of prohi bition. "Prior to this campaign in Atlanta our people were always pertaining to the good of the city. The bitterness engendered by this campaign tore our city into factions and produced wound* that have not yet healed. Members of the same family in some Instances were arrayed against each other, and the holing became so intense that a lapse of eight or ten years has not smoothed it down. "As to prohibition Itself, I think I am perfectly safe in saying that the great ma jority of our people, and amongst that number a majority of the prohibitionists themselves, will admit that prohibition in actual operation in Atlanta was a failure. Tills did not result from any lack of de sire on the part of the municipal authori ties to enforce prohibition, because I know from being personally a-onnected with the city government at the time that every possible effort was made to enforce the provisions of the law. It is my deliberate Judgment, after having seen it in effect in Atlanta and in other places, that prohibi tion will always be a failure unless there is back of it a practically united sentiment In favor of it. Blind tigers abounded. The Jug traffic was in successful operation, and in my opinion there was as much drunkenness in Atlanta during prohibition as before or since. The constant effort to evade the prohibition laws encouraged hypocrisy and deceit, and was as much demoralizing as, or more than the open traffic in whisky could have been. "I am satisfied thijt the true theory is high license and strict regulations. "1 ant sure that 'Atlanta, having made this experiment once, could not under any consideration he induced to repeat it. Very respectfully. "C. A. Collier. Mayor.” Notes Taken On the Run. A large force of hands was put to work this morning grading the lower epd of Cherry street for pavement with Belgian block. Mr. C.

SOME LEAVES OF ABSENCE Will Be Granted by the Colonel in All Probability to Those Who Are at Work. The soldiers of the First Georgia are in the city, or at least a majority of them are. The trains for the past few days have been bringing in large crowds of them and tonight when the sun sinks over the hori zon all of them will report for duty. A few telegraphed for an extension of leave and some have written to the colonel accompanied by a physician's certificate saying that they are unable to come. A majority of the men, however, are here and will be mustered out in about ten days. Colonel Law ton is in the city and will be very busy tomorrow for mustering out a regiment is no easy Job. Both he and C aptain Clarke and the other mustering out officers will have their hands full for the next few days and will have only a few moments of leisure time. The men who belong to the regiment who live in Macon and who have secured positions will ask the colonel to grant them leave of absence so that they will not be absent from their work. It is very probable that he will do this as he sees the necessity of it. Many of the men will be transferred to' the Second Georgia as many wish to remain in the service. One of the privates said this morning that he Has very well satisfied with army life and that he intended .to stick it out. He said that he had a good position at home but he could make more, money in the army. The first sergeants of all of companies will be kept -busy for the next few days. Making out the pay rolls is a very hard job and it will take some time. Nearly all of the officers have arrived in the city and will go into camp this af ternoon. Some few have secured an ex tension of leave until tomorrow. The paymaster is expected here in a few, days and he will in all probability pay out about $40,000. (Commu.n icated.) Deadly Parallel Column. Two Gospels. FROM THE WORD OF GOD. Christ said : “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth ; I came not to send peace but a sword. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.” — Math. 10:34-36. “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace I on earth? I tell yon, I Nay, but rather divis- I ions. For, from hence | forth there shall be five in one house; three against two and two against three.”— Luke 12:51-52. FROM THE WORDS OF I MEN In the local option campaign in Atlanta " members of the same family in some in stances were arraved against each other.’’ Mayor Collier's lov ing epistle to Mayor Price. "Now, if Mayor Price believes that’ to promote the general | welfare of the inhabi tants of the city of ( Macon, it is best to i ask the leaders of a campaign and move ment to withdraw their call for an elec tion, which, in his judgment, formed by hearing good citizens slandered and abused, because of their con trary belief, by foreign hirelings, brothers against brothers, and even wives against husband, etc. From an anonymous and feeble attack on Mr. Guerry. The foregoing words of the Lord Jesus Christ dissipate the false idea entertain ed 'by the above quoted theologians that the peace of his gospel is the peace which comes from surrender to the powers of wickedness: These words of the Savious of mankind are fearful words: they are sharper than a itwo-edged sword; they show that where righteousness meets in conflict with evil that the division must be carried even Into the very 'bosom of families. This is true not because the gentle and loving man of Nazareth desired that it should be 'So, but because the very nature of the case forbids any other possible result. How Prohibition Divides Families. The argument of the whisky and beer traffic that the local option election will set members of families against each oth er, has ho application except in those fam ilies where whisky and beer had already sharply drawn in sorrow and grief the line of difference and division. 'How the case stands in other families may be Illustrated by the following actual incident: On Wednesday morning last the Macon Telegraph contained a list of prominent and noble citizens of Macon, (all of whom are now dead except two.) who in 1853 signed the call for a conven tion to meet in Atlanta for the suppres sion of the liquor traffic. (This was no mere temperance organization, for the words of the call were SUPPRESSION OF THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC.) The Telegraph also contained a partial list of the names of nOble women of Macon, most of -whom have gone to their reward, appealing to the citizens of Bibb county to give to them “the protection of sobriety” from the evils of the liquor traffic. When this paper was opened at the breakfast table in a certain home, the ; father of the along with the | honored name of L. N. Whittle, Virgil Powers, John B. Ross, S. S. Dunlap and others, the name of his father, now dead, and when he read in the column of noble women, along with the names of Mrs. I. C. Plant, Mrs. Washington Poe, Mrs. Wil i liam A. Ross, Mrs. Kirkland, Mrs. Mix and many others, the name of the mother of his wife, no sooner was this done than they arose and stretched their hands across the table and over the heads of I their beloved children and thanked God that they were alive today to help fulfill the prayers of their honored parents. They were not aware before this publication that their fathers and mothers had gone i through the same battles for the cause of righteousness. This is a living and actual example of • the way that the local option campaign i has divided families, and it suggests the question what sort of families are those ; which an issue of righteousness divides. I Were they not already divided by this al most omnipresent evil and is not this evil ' responsible for the division rather than ' the effort to remove It. [Communicated.] EX-MAYOR HILLYER VS.

The session closed this morn ing with a sunrise prayer meeting at the Uresbyterian church. The convention has been very sue ssful and much good work has been accomplished. The inclement weaher o-n the first 'day kept many people from coming who would have otherwise done so and consequently the attendance was not as large as was expected. With the exception of a sunrise prayer meeting yesterday morning no services were held until the afternoon. All of the delegates filled the different pulpits in the city. Rev. A. J. Smith preached at the Tattnall Square church and many dele gates were in attendance. The exercises yesterday afternoon, were vry interesting. The Junior Rally exer cises were held and the, young peoople did their parts well. At 7 o’clock -Rev. W. F. McCauley addressed the convention on the "Christian Endpavor.” It was an excel lent address and occupied over an hour. The sunrise exercises this morning were largely attended, more delegates being present than at any other meeting. The convention adjourned as soon -as the ex ercises were over. The delegales were all well pleased with Macon. Most of them left this morning at 11 o’clock for their homes. Three Doctors in Consultation. From Benjamin Franklin. “When you are sick what you like best is to be chosen for a medicine in the first place; what experience tells you is best to be chosen in the second place; what reason (i. e., Theory) says is best is to be chosen in the last place. But if you can get Dr. Inclination, Dr. Experience and Dr. Reason to hold a consultation to gether , they will give you the best ad vice that can be taken.” When you have a bad cold Dr. Inclina tion would recommend Dr. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, because it is pleasant and safe to take. Dr. Experience would recom mend it because it never fails to effect a speedy and -permanent cure. Dr. Reason would recommend it because it is pre pared on scientific principles and acts on nature’s plan in relieving the lungs, opening the secretions and restoring the system to a natural and healthy condi tion.

It took mb several days to estimate the damage and settle with the insurance companies. Although only a small portion of our stock was injured by tihe fire the catastrophe interfered with our plans for the winter and necessitated new ararnge ments. Decided To Close Out. No matter how small the damage of a fire may really be it affects, so far as the public is concerned, everything in stock, so we decided to inaugurate a sacrifice sale that would close out our stock. The Fire Is Now History. As thousands of level headed people have taken advantage of the catastrophe to supply themselves with shoes while they could be bought for a song. NVlhile it is no fun for us to give away shoes on which we had hoped to realize a modedate profit we are gratified to see the unanimity with which the public has patronized our Fire Sale.

'When the fire came we had just gotten in our fall and winter stock, and although we have a world of shoes on hand, we think we ought to close them out by January Ist. Now is Your Time. If you want to buy some of the best shoes you ever wore at prices that hardly more than cover the cost of the leather. Come on and get them before “Time 1g up.” We will not attempt to realize a profit until our fire sale is over. The same reductions to rich and poor.
